Is there a good ad-remover plug-in for Internet Explorer 11?
#1
Right now, in my Windows 7 computer, I have Internet Explorer 11 on. I used Ad-Block Plus, the same that protects other browsers.

I am reluctant to use too many third party application that does the same thing as the applications provided by Windows 7 by default. It's not that I have anything against them, it's just that I want to leave everything where they are this time around (I just reformatted).

So, is there an alternate ad-controlling software for Internet Explorer 11?

Thanks.

EDIT: Sorry, I should have mentioned in my first paragraph that Ad Block Plus was not on par when its brother version on other browsers performed nicely. For example, It can't block any of the ads in The Pirate Bay. Sorry again for leaving that out. That was why I was asking for a second opinion in the first place. Thank you.

not specific to IE, but serves as an overall protection for all browsers

Edit: forgot something, I dunno what you mean with "controlling", if you mean, select which ads should show up or not, or having the ability to block ads on the fly, this might not be what you expected, in order to do that, you have to get the ad's hyperlink and add it to the hosts file.

Wow.

While I won't jump to conclusions by impulse, it looks promising. The Pirate Bay site has no ads after I applied the patch.

I tip my have off the developer of the program and you, NokTham.

About your reply, just disregard the word "control." I was trying to simply "kill." I used "control" because I want to control the situation. By doing that, I want to kill the ads.

Apologies for the confusion, and thanks again!

Proxy Auto Configuration.
This is what I used many years back on IE. Nice to see the website still running.
I think it tended to slow things when more filters were added to the conf file.
Am happy with ABP :-)

Robert, thirst thing any avid Window user does is get another browser as IE is shit and always has been.
